I liked the way when he was fitting tile no 4 and the grout line didn't look right, he just pretended it was ok lol,...edgit! People like this guy really infuriate me, we all know he doesn't have a clue about fixing trav but Joe blogs would prob hire him as he comes over as very confident, way too confident imo! I can spot these types a mile away though, I may be buying a car or looking for a new mortgage, if I detect these sly, over confident, arrogant attributes in someone I have very little tolerance for them! The more I watch him, the more i dislike him!!!

What a clever man! He has found a solution to a problem that did not exist in the first place. Surely, given the high cost and sensitive nature of modern tiling and sanitary fittings it would be better practice to have secured timber battens and not have large unwieldy metal bars lying about ready to scratch and chip anything within scratching and chipping distance :yikes:
